Gingham and Broderie Anglaise criss crossed on a bed of lace......sounds like a recipe. You have seen this before, a couple of times I think but today it's different. There are little gingham ''nuggets'' appliqued on one strip now and there are three bumpy bits as opposed to just one. The little flowers, far left, top picture were the first embellishments to be embroidered onto this some weeks ago. I'm now extending the surface embroidery without a firm plan on where to go next. That doesn't worry me, I'll just keep stitching until that blinding flash strikes me. I also don't know what this will be yet.....don't hold your breath for that decision as I'm in no hurry.
Earlier today I was making lace cloth for class. This afternoon I need to make more but I also have a hankering to make some in pure white, to play with. If you need me I'll be sat just over there covered in little snippets of lace and white and thread....
